EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Not applicable
The purpose of this report is to
provide background information regarding applications for draft plan of
subdivision approval and implementing zoning by-law amendments within the Cornell
community, and to recommend that the implementing zoning by-laws be enacted and
that conditional 2011 servicing allocation be granted.
On January 13, 2009 a Development Services Committee public
meeting was held to consider these applications for draft plan approval and
implementing zoning for a residential plan of subdivision that includes 190
single detached units, 188 semi-detached units and 47 townhouse units (total 425
units). The current plan is the final
phase of a larger draft plan of subdivision that has already been partially
draft approved, zoned and registered based on the availability of servicing
allocation. Existing servicing
allocation for 21.2 units (78.4 pop.) and conditional 2011 servicing allocation
for 31 units (114.7 pop.) is available for this plan.
Staff have
completed their review and evaluation of the applications, and the proposal is
acceptable to staff. Therefore, in
accordance with the Public Meeting resolution, the draft implementing zoning
by-law amendments (Appendices A and B) may now be finalized for enactment. The amendment
to By-law 177-96, as amended includes two Holding provisions (H and H1). The (H) provision applies to those units that
will be receiving conditional 2011 servicing allocation, whereas the (H1) provision
applies to those units that will be receiving post 2012 servicing
allocation. The conditions that need to
be satisfied prior to the removal of the (H) and (H1) are different and are
based on Regional servicing allocation criteria (see Appendix ‘B’).
Delegated
approval of the draft plan of subdivision by the Director of Planning
and Urban Design will follow Council approval of the implementing zoning by-law
amendments, in accordance with Section 2(b)(iv) of Delegation By-law 2002-202,
as amended, and the granting of conditional 2011 servicing allocation. The
applicant will be required to execute no pre-sales and indemnity agreements
with the Town and the Region of York respectively prior to draft plan approval.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Not applicable.
HUMAN RESOURCES CONSIDERATIONS:
Not applicable.
ALIGNMENT WITH
STRATEGIC PRIORITIES:
The proposed applications will
align with the Town’s strategic priorities of Growth Management and Municipal
Services by implementing the proposed development in coordination with
available servicing allocation.
BUSINESS UNITS CONSULTED AND AFFECTED:
The applications have been
reviewed by various Town departments and external agencies. Requirements of the Town and external
agencies will be reflected in the conditions of draft plan of subdivision
approval and the implementing zoning by-law amendments.
